Default tried boosting more now more problems...

well i have been running a solid .51 bar and i wanted to up the boost so i went to .72 it ran good for a few runs on the street, i let it sit for 2 days then i was taking it to funday sunday in orlando and on my way there it just started reving rapidly back and forth from about 5,400-5,700ish, no matter what gear or whatever, i have plenty of fuel and my timing is good to, at that rpm is when my turbo is usually at full boost. i am running the hack, btm, and a mr. gasket stackable head gasket, oh its sohc mini me btw, but i checked all my wiring and i got new plugs and wires, i even turned off my boost control and put everything like it was before and it still continues, oh and i also unplugged the computer to reset it to see if that would do anything but now i am out of ideas, well if anyone has any ideas for me let me know thanks in advance
